U.S. Machine Tool Orders Accelerate
June manufacturing technology orders climbed 6.5 percent over May to $373.2 million.
How Additive Manufacturing Extends the Life of Sensors
The sensor elements used to monitor the flow in oil and gas pipelines suffer considerable wear as a result of corrosion and abrasion, which shortens their lifetimes and necessitates costly repairs. Now direct metal deposition (DMD) can be used to increase the durability of these sensors and improve the reliability of those pipelines.
